Holtry, a 17-year department veteran, was critically injured and remains hospitalized at Saint Alphonsus Regional Medical Center with multiple gunshot wounds from the Nov. 11 incident. He and a second officer, Cpl. Chris Davis, were injured in an exchange of gunfire with a fugitive parolee, Marco Romero, who was killed in the gunfight.

Davis, shot once in the leg, was treated and released. A police dog named Jardo was also hit. The dog underwent successful surgery and was expected to recover but later died. A service was held for him Tuesday.
